I have had a few parties already, for the football games. My friends/family are impressed that we did it all ourselves, and can't beleive the price of speakers/audio/video equipment these days. Like them, I was out of the loop for 20 years or so, and was a little shocked when we started pricing stuff, but we put the whole room together everything included for a little over $10g, and did not have to go to the bank, so it is all free and clear, wihich is the best feeling.
We found ALL the ceiling tiles off of craigslist, from a few different people used, and painted all 475 of them with my paint crew sprayer (what a mess).
Having a problem with the driver on my sub bottoming, but still think I am going to order another kit and buid another one, css said the would replace the driver if need be, great company to deal with, and an awesome sub!!
